455 Accidents and Impostors
Chu Xiangqian sent Hong Sanbao and Guo Zhenhua to Los Angeles International Airport by the way, and saw the two get on the plane, and then took the car driven by Zhang Tianzhi and came to Universal Studios.
Entering the office of General Manager Mike Hyndman, this guy took the newspaper on his desk as soon as he saw Chu Xiangqian.
With a look of surprise, he said, "Stark, can you hold another public competition?"
The venue and the invitation list are all in our hands.
All you need to do is get Jack and Mr. Hong in the game. ”
Chu shrugged forward, "The two of them have returned to Hong Kong Island on their plane this morning, but the matter of the martial arts competition can be handed over to Master Zhang." ”
After speaking, Chu Qianqian pointed at Zhang Tianzhi.
Chu Xiangqian had already seen the news this morning, and Hong Sanbao was the easiest to be recognized because of his size.
Guo Zhenhua kicked the photo of the ghost apprentice in Nakamura, and his face was also revealed.
However, the photo of Zhang Tianzhi stepping on Nakamura's head with one foot, probably because of the angle, only his back was exposed.
But Nakamura's painful and hideous face that was stepped on was taken clearly.
It seems that the reporter deliberately chose this photo, needless to say, for the purpose of provoking the anger of the island people.
But this helped Chu Xiangqian.
And just like the people of the Celestial Empire, they will be face blind when they look at ghosts.
Goblins are also commonly faceblind to Asians.
Mike Hyndman looked at Zhang Tianzhi in some surprise, but he didn't recognize Zhang Tianzhi as the person with his tall back in the front page headlines.
This made Chu Xiangqian more and more relieved.
"Stark, I'm not skeptical of your vision and recommendation, but this is in the ring, are you really sure that Zhang alone can win all the challengers?"
Chu Xiangqian also knew that after the kicking of the gym, not only the people of the island country would want to earn face, but other schools of boxing would also want to take the opportunity to become famous.
And karate is really famous in the United States at this time, and it is also recognized by many people.
Not only is it sought after by a large number of people in the United States, but there is also special karate fighting training in the military.
The reason is very simple, karate, a fierce fist method, splitting bricks and hitting wine bottles is still quite bluffing.
And for ordinary people, practicing for three or five years can indeed be better than ordinary people.
Otherwise, it would not be so famous.
But if you practice boxing and other martial arts skills, you will be better than ordinary people in three or five years.
The second is that since 46 years, the islanders have allocated funds every year to lobby the politicians and media of the United States to eliminate the hostility of the people of the United States towards the island countries.
After the island nation attacked Pearl Harbor, the Chinese people also began to set up concentration camps, detaining more than 200,000 island people.
It wasn't until 46 that these people were released.
It can be said that in the decade or two after World War II, ordinary people in the United States generally had a bad impression of the island country, which made the island country very worried after the war.
After all, the people of the United States are now the emperor of the island country, not only garrisoning the island country, but also controlling the island country's economy.
Therefore, the government of the island country has to allocate special funds to buy and bribe senior officials of the United States.
This trick has been used since the people of the United States landed in the island country.
When MacArthur left the island, he heard that the wealth he had taken with him was rumored to be at least 200 tons of gold, plus other antiques, jewelry, etc., which had to be loaded on ships.
Since the five-star generals of the United States can be settled with money, the people of the island country will naturally not forget to buy off the politicians and magnates of the United States.
As soon as the news is unfavorable to the island nation, someone will immediately come to the door.
Lobbying, bribery, and giving away women are all used.
Los Angeles has quite a few tabloids dedicated to the islanders.
The purpose is very simple, these days, the people of the United States hate the island country, and the tabloids naturally report what the audience likes to watch for the sake of sales.
Second, many media know that as long as they grasp the handle of the island country and make a few issues of the report, after the first issue of the report comes out, some people from the island country will take the initiative to find Shanmen to spend money to buy the remaining issues.
For the tabloids, this is to grasp the wealth code.
Of course, the more times you take money, the more you want it, the easier it is.
Then the islanders began to export the island culture in reverse, and at first they did not dare to promote bushido.
But in the decade or two after the 80s, when the island's economy took off, the islanders slowly showed the nature of an immature wolf.
In the movie "The Last Samurai" starring Tom Cruise, while the people of the United States are the saviors, they are full of a lot of private goods.
It's almost like portraying the islanders as victims, and this set has actually begun to be used in the Celestial Empire.
It's a pity that several similar movies filmed not only failed to achieve the goal of the people of the United States in the Celestial Empire, but were also scolded as Xiang.
Chu Xiangqian's confidence in Zhang Tianzhi is naturally very strong, at least Zhang Tianzhi in this world must be better than Uncle Xiaolong in the 70s in his previous life.
Fighting alone, with two Eight Slashers in hand, it should be no problem to deal with those ninjas among several ninja assassins.
No matter how bad it is, don't you still have yourself.
The matter of the public martial arts competition, after Zhang Tianzhi agreed, soon spread from the world.
It immediately caused a sensation in Los Angeles and on the West Coast.
After the news reached Hong Kong Island, the masters of the martial arts association were all jealous, envious and hateful.
Then he found Guo Zhenhua and Hong Sanbao, and made a cross-ocean call to ask Chu Xiangqian if they could bring their apprentices over to watch the battle and cheer.
Even Hong Zhennan personally called Chu Xiangqian and complained that it was beneficial, so why did he give it to the people of Wing Chun.
Chu Xiangqian could only smile and say that if Hong Zhennan was 20 years younger, he would definitely give him this opportunity.
Hong Zhennan sighed in his heart, and secretly said that his luck was not good.
I want to say that Chu Xiangqian can play by himself, but I feel that Chu Xiangqian is a famous and rich man, and going to the ring again will lower his status.
In the end, he could only vent his frustration and dissatisfaction on Hong Sanbao's head.
If his nephew, plus Chu Xiangqian's nephew, can have Zhang Tianzhi's 8 points of skill, then he must be the one on the field.
At that time, Hong Quan will have a great reputation overseas, and even if he goes to see his ancestors, he can still hold his chest and say that he is worthy of Hong Fist's disciples.
——
In the midst of the uproar at the Open Challenge, there was also an Irishman in his 30s on the beach side of Santa Monica.
The purpose is, of course, to investigate the 5 bikers who disappeared the other day.
At first, Frank was just following who the bikers had a grudge with, or that there was a local gangster, or even a gangster who was eyeing 5 people because of money.
But after checking and checking, I also killed a lot of people, but I still didn't find out who killed that guy.
In the end, even the boss behind Frank thought that it might be these 5 guys who disappeared with the money themselves.
After Frank really couldn't find out, he actually gave up in his heart, after all, the boss let him go back to Chicago first, and Frank naturally didn't want to waste time in Los Angeles anymore.
But before leaving, Frank was still a little unwilling, as one of the three giants of the mafia, Russell's subordinates, whether it was murder or other things, he never missed.
Moreover, although many Irish have become members of the mafia family, or even core members, they are still guarded against and despised by Italian accomplices.
Although this defeat will not affect Russell's status in his heart, he will definitely be ridiculed by others.
So, Frank thought, while the plane had to take off tomorrow afternoon, he would just make one last effort.
Driving the car, along the clues investigated in the last few days, the streets that the five bikers walked through before and after the departure were checked all the way.
Before you know it, you're at that seafood restaurant.
It's just that Frank is too late, or rather, he has been investigating for too long.
After Chu Xiangqian summoned Ichiro Matsuno and his men from Hong Kong Island.
My heart suddenly moved, and I spent money to buy the seafood restaurant directly.
After leaving the kitchen staff and four day shift waiters, the waiter who had served him that night was dismissed along with the other three.
Of course, there is definitely no need for Chu Qianqian to come forward to do this, just hand it over to the lawyer and the former manager of the restaurant.
Even the restaurant didn't know that the new owner was Asian.
At this time, Kumiko and Olivia, who were busy in the restaurant with the two newly recruited rice chicks.
When Frank walked in, Kumiko and Olivia quickly recognized that this guy had been here the day before yesterday.
I also inquired about the 5 bikers.
When he reported to Chu Xiangqian before, Chu Xiangqian was still thinking about not having much to do, after all, the insider had been dismissed.
The probability of those 4 waiters and gangsters coming to investigate may be less than one in a million.
But if it's aimed at the people who come to investigate, it's not self-admitting.
But I didn't want Frank to come back to him.
Kumiko hurriedly called Chu Xiangqian.
Olivia took the initiative to break lunch, and after Frank thanked him, he took out a $5 bill and asked again.
It's a pity that Olivia is the same as last time, only saying that she didn't see 5 bikers.
However, Frank didn't give up so easily, and after Olivia said she didn't know, he called another waiter over to add coffee.
It's a pity that this person is a new recruit, so naturally he doesn't know anything.
It's just that what people didn't expect was that the three people who were separated by two tables talked about the events of that night while eating lunch.
Although Chu Xiangqian was very calm that night, when the 5 bikers came to find trouble, and even scolded himself for being a yellow-skinned monkey, he decisively got up and left the table, paid and went out.
But the three of them happened to be eating at the restaurant that day.
Seeing that the people of the Biker Party obviously wanted to find trouble, they actually bet on whether Chu Xiangqian, Zhang Tianzhi, Guo Zhenhua, and Hong Sanbao would be beaten.
It's a pity that the other two directly said that Chu Qianqian and the four of them had a fight, and they would definitely leave quickly.
Then he saw 5 bikers, chased Chu Qianqian and the four of them left the restaurant.
What happened after that, they naturally don't know.
Today, we met to eat together again, and we talked about that night while chatting.
Frank was overjoyed, smiled and got up and walked over to the three of them to talk.
Although I didn't get any useful information, I also knew that the five people had troubled four Asians that night.
And since I investigated from other aspects and didn't get any useful information, these four Asians naturally became the most suspicious targets.
After Frank politely thanked him, he wanted to go out and find someone to see if anyone in the neighborhood knew that he was Chinese.
But as soon as I walked to the door, my heart suddenly moved, and I asked the waiter several times, but I didn't know anything.
Maybe the waiters didn't want to get into trouble, but it also meant that they might know those four people.
I walked over to the counter where I picked up my food and looked at the waitress who had just poured me coffee.
After a polite questioning, the woman suddenly became impatient, "Sir, I have only been working for less than a week, and I really haven't seen the five motorcycle parties you mentioned." ”
Frank wasn't surprised, did that mean someone fired the waiter that night?
"Can you ask where the waiter who left the company lives before?"
With that, he took out a few $20 bills from his pocket and pressed them against his round cap.
The waitress's eyes lit up, and her weekly salary was only $20, which was four or five weeks' income.
I was busy skimming around, but I wanted to say something, but I suddenly realized that I didn't know or see the waiter before.
With a broken expression, he said, "Sir, I really want to earn this extra money, but the four waiters on the day shift are all new recruits." ”
Frank was not angry either, and ended up giving her $20.
"When you change shifts in the afternoon, help me ask my colleagues on the evening shift. My nephew recently ran away from home and probably just rides around with his friends.
For the sake of being a 16-year-old, help me ask, is that okay? ”
The waiter naturally nodded in agreement.
Frank looked at his watch and said, "How about I wait for you at 4 p.m. at the coffee shop next door to the restaurant?" ”
After saying that, he added, "Of course, the pay is $80." ”
Now the waiter is more motivated.
It's just that before 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the people who came to the coffee shop were not the waiter, but Tsuchiya and Fujiwara, who were wearing suits.
After seeing Frank, the two ninjas walked over, bowed and said, "Sir, our boss has a please." ”
Island people speak English, often with a characteristic accent, Frank has dealt with island gangsters, and it is clear that these two people are island people.
And only island people will bow in public.
Frank cursed that Los Angeles was the preferred place for immigrants on the island in recent decades.
By the '60s, there were three to four million islanders in Los Angeles.
From Los Angeles to the rest of California, it's even more.
Even in the farms and pastures around the small town of Solvan, there are many island people working.
These people are discriminated against and made difficult, so naturally some people will gather together and form gang-like gangs to keep warm.
Then, like other immigrants, they slowly changed to gangster nature.
Frank is not stupid, in the past 3 hours or so in the afternoon, he has already asked people around if anyone has seen the four Asians that night.
I didn't expect to ask it.
In a laundromat not far away, the owner remembers how he envied four Asians that night for being able to drive a luxury car like Cadillac.
And the little trick subconsciously thought that the Asians who could drive a Cadillac at this time must be the islanders who recently immigrated over.
Then I saw 5 bikers, driving after the two cars.
Now that two islanders in suits and leather shoes appeared in front of him, Frank immediately guessed that the dismissal of the waiter at the seafood restaurant must have been done by the islanders.
